Technically — TECHNICALLY! — we still have a system that relies on three co-equal branches to ensure that any single branch can’t steamroll the rest of the system (along with the nation it’s supposed to serve) to seize an unequal amount of power.
Technically.
What we’re seeing now is something else entirely. The judicial branch is headed by people who are willing to give the executive branch...

Over the years, we’ve written approximately one million words explaining why Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act is essential to how the internet functions. We’ve corrected politicians who lie about it. We’ve debunked myths spread by mainstream media outlets that should know better. We’ve explained, re-explained, and then explained again why gutting this law would be catastrophic for...
We told you this was coming months ago.
The Trump Department of Justice (DOJ) says it has initiated a broad investigation of Netflix’s business practices and it’s planned $82.7 billion merger with Warner Brothers. The Trump DOJ’s pretense is that they’re just suddenly really concerned about media consolidation and monopoly power (you’re to ignore the U.S. right wing’s generational and...
EFF is against age gating and age verification mandates, and we hope we’ll win in getting existing ones overturned and new ones prevented. But mandates are already in effect, and every day many people are asked to verify their age across the web, despite prominent cases of sensitive data getting leaked in the process.
At some point, you may have been faced with the decision yourself: should I...
Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino has been sent back to the border after making himself the Nazi scum face of the Trump administration’s brutal efforts to purge this country of as many non-white people as possible.
Bovino made it clear what team he really wanted to play for before Trump was even sworn in for the second time. After Trump’s election win (but before Trump actually took office),...

In the last few years, the Supreme Court has been paying a lot more attention to the internet than it ever has before, and the cases keep on coming. This is already having a big impact on how the internet functions, and it doesn’t look likely to stop any time soon. Given all that, this week our own Cathy Gellis joins the podcast for a discussion all about the past, present...
We live in a stupidly polarizing world where nuance is apparently not allowed. Everyone wants you to be for or against something—and nowhere is this more exhausting than with AI. There are those who insist that it’s all bad and there is nothing of value in it. And there are those who think it’s all powerful, the greatest thing ever, and will replace basically every job with AI bots who can work...

I don’t understand sycophancy. Never have. I don’t know what it gets you in the long run other than a reputation for subservience. That’s worth nearly nothing in the open market. The only people who will hire you are people most people would never want to work for.
And yet, that is pretty much the entirety of the GOP under Trump: a massive collection of doormats the current president won’t even...
